HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

What I want to support you in doing, on this bright, crisp 2nd day of 2008, is getting grounded in making the year ahead an incredible year for you!
Each day this week I am going to offer you some suggestions for getting your energy focused on what you truly desire to create. Today starts with…
1) Get complete with 2007. It will be difficult to move into a great, new year if you are still holding onto or stuck in less-than-stellar feelings, situations, or events that happened last year. One suggestion for putting the past in the past are write it down and burn it! Write down all the disappointments, resentments, judgments, vitriol, venom, nasty stuff that is in your head with wild abandon.

This is for you and your spirit alone to process and complete. Let the “little girl” or “inner child” in you have a voice too (write with your opposite hand) and see what she has to say. By really letting yourself tap into your upset and rage about what did or didn’t happen during the year, you free yourself, your mind, your heart and your precious energy to focus on creating the Best Year of Your Life! Tune into the deeply insightful interview I did with Debbie Ford recently for more understanding on how to create the best year of your life and what might be in the way.

Let yourself really feel the disappointment, sadness, frustration. You can do this with a friend, a group of friends, or alone. Whatever serves you best - but really DO IT!!

Once you feel you have gotten all of the unhappies down on paper, rip the paper into little pieces so you can burn it. I suggest doing this outside, in nature, at the beach if possible so that energy has more room to float away into the ethers where it can be recycled. It can be powerful too, to recite intentions and affirmations as the paper is burning:

“I release all the events of 2007″

“I am happy to let go of all that did not serve me in 2007″

“It feels great to let go of the past”

“I consciously let go of 2007 with love and compassion for myself”

“I release any make-wrong of myself for anything I did not do in 2007″

“I free my self and my mind to create a bright new future for myself”

Saying these statements out loud is a signal to your mind, your spirit, and anything that guides you in your life that you are serious about letting go, loving yourself and MOVING ON.
Tomorrow we discuss Creating 2008!

Have a Blessed Day!
